At first I thought the task was simple, but it soon 2 to be the hardest homework of the term. I sat at my desk for a whole evening 3 writing a single line. My mother suggested that I turn to the people around me. So I asked my classmates, who were both honest and 4 . Daniel said that I was patient and never got angry 5 ; Sandy said that I paid attention to every 6 when our group worked on a project. Neither of them 7 me as “quiet”, the very word I had used about myself for years. That answer surprised me. I had always 8 that my careful nature was a weakness, 9 it often made me slow. Now I understood that the same quality could make me 10 for work that allows no mistakes, such as medicine or engineering. Mr Wu told us that no personality is 11 than another. What really matters is whether we know how to 12 good use of our strong points. 13 we see ourselves clearly, we can choose a path that 14 us instead of copying somebody else. Knowing yourself, I finally realized, is not a piece of homework. It is a lesson that 15 a whole life. 1．A．population B．personality C．permission D．position 2．A．turned out B．turned up C．turned down D．turned off 3．A．with B．by C．without D．for 4．A．careless B．kind C．lazy D．proud 5．A．easy B．hard C．hardly D．easily 6．A．detail B．mistake C．subject D．reason 7．A．described B．mentioned C．impressed D．suggested 8．A．wondered B．asked C．believed D．decided 9．A．so B．but C．although D．because 10．A．terrible B．suitable C．possible D．comfortable 11．A．good B．best C．better D．worst 12．A．take B．get C．give D．make 13．A．Unless B．Once C．Whether D．Though 14．A．suit B．suits C．suited D．suiting 15．A．costs B．spends C．lasts D．takes 【答案】 1．B 2．A 3．C 4．B 5．D 6．A 7．A 8．C 9．D 10．B 11．C 12．D 13．B 14．B 15．C 【导语】本文讲述作者通过完成关于性格的报告，意识到细心是优点，明白了解自己是伴随一生的课程。 【详解】1．句意：吴老师让每个学生写一份关于自己性格的报告。 根据下文多次出现的“personality”及全文主题，可知是关于性格的报告；population意为“人口”、permission意为“允许”、position意为“位置”均不符合主题。 2．句意：起初任务简单，但结果却是本学期最难的作业。 根据“turn out to be”固定搭配，前文心理预期是简单，后文实际情况是最难作业，turn out to be“结果是、最终成为”契合前后反差逻辑；turned down“调低、拒绝”、turned up“露面”、turned off“关掉”，语义不符合上下文转折关系。 3．句意：我坐了一整晚，没写出一行字。 根据“hardest homework”及语境，前文交代作业实际难度远超想象，因此对应写作毫无进展；with“带着”、by“凭借”、for“为了”，无法体现完全写不出内容的窘迫状态。 4．句意：所以我问了同学，他们既诚实又友善。 前文写作者遇到难题主动求助，用来形容同学的品格是正向褒义，根据“honest”及同学给予帮助，可知是友善的；careless“粗心的”、lazy“懒惰的”是负面词，proud“骄傲的”，不符合热心帮忙的语境。 5．句意：Daniel 说我很有耐心，从不轻易生气。 此处需要副词修饰动词短语got angry，easily“轻易地”符合耐心所以很少发火的人物评价；easy是形容词不能修饰动词，hard“努力地”、hardly“几乎不”，逻辑不通。 6．句意：Sandy 说小组合作时我关注每个细节。 根据下文“careful nature”，结合后文反复提到作者性格细致、做事谨慎，细节是其性格标签；mistake“错误”、subject“科目”、reason“理由”，和细心的特点无关联。 7．句意：他们都没把我描述为“安静”。 describe sb. as sth.是固定搭配，意为“把某人描述为……”，对应同学给出的性格评价；mentioned“提及”、impressed“使印象深刻”、suggested“建议”，无法搭配as构成评价描述的用法。 8．句意：我一直认为我细心的天性是弱点。 后文交代这份想法是作者长久以来的固有认知，是内心笃定的看法；wondered“疑惑”、asked“询问”、decided“决定”，不能表达长期固化的想法。 9．句意：因为它常让我动作慢。 后半句是解释前文“细心是缺点”的原因，用because引导原因状语从句；so引导结果、but表转折、although表让步，逻辑关系不成立。 10．句意：现在明白这品质使我适合不容出错的工作。 根据“allows no mistakes”，前文推翻了细心是缺点的想法，此处讲细心对应的优势工作场景，be suitable for“适合”贴合语境；terrible“糟糕的”语义相反，possible“可能的”、comfortable“舒适的”，无法修饰人适配工作。 11．句意：吴老师说没有哪种性格比另一种更好。 句中出现比较标志词than，必须使用形容词比较级；good是原级，best是最高级，worst是最差，均不符合语法与文意。 12．句意：重要的是如何利用好优点。 make good use of是固定短语“充分利用”，契合发挥性格优势的上下文；take、get、give不能构成该固定搭配。 13．句意：一旦我们看清自己，就能选择适合的路。 认清自我是选对道路的前提条件，once“一旦”引导条件状语从句；unless“除非”、whether“是否”、though“虽然”，逻辑衔接错误。 14．句意：一条适合我们的路。 先行词path是单数可数名词，定语从句谓语动词要用第三人称单数形式suits；原形suit、过去式suited、现在分词suiting均存在语法错误。 15．句意：这是一堂持续一生的课。 根据“a whole life”，可知课程持续一生，last表示“持续、延续”，对应人的一生漫长时光；costs主语只能是物，仅表花钱；spends主语必须是人；takes多用于花费时间，均不符合“一生漫长过程”的语境。 二、阅读理解(共20小题，每小题2分，满分40分) 第一节(共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分) 阅读三篇短文，从每小题所结的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出一个与短文内容相符的最佳选项。 A In the 1980s, many foreign photographers came to China. They took photos of the social changes after the country’s opening-up. Mike Emery, now 69, is one of them. In the early spring of 1980, Emery got a job as a photographer on a ship to China. His main job was to take photos for the guests on the ship. When he stepped onto the land of China for the very first time, he was so excited. Emery followed the guests to big cities like Shanghai, Beijing and Tianjin. In his spare time, he walked with a camera through the streets alone and recorded people’s daily lives in those cities. He took a large number of pictures of children. In his photos, they played on the streets, went to school, and smiled at him happily.    Emery returned to China 39 years later. When he stepped off the plane and saw the country again, he saw so many tall apartment blocks that he could hardly believe his eyes. Besides, the once narrow streets have become wide roads and bridges. This change has made public transportation more convenient. In the same year, he published a photo book—China 1980. He hopes these photos can help people understand Chinese society in 1980 and show them China’s great changes. Last year, from July 24th to August 19th, Emery had a photo exhibition (展览), Nice to Meet You, in Shanghai. These photos bring back pleasant old memories. “Through these photos, people today can walk into the past and touch the special stories of China,” he said. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 16．What did Emery do in 1980? A．He took many photos in China. B．He worked on a ship as a waiter. C．He lived in China for quite a while. D．He wrote a book about photography. 17．How did Emery feel when he revisited China? A．Proud. B．Surprised. C．Calm. D．Lonely. 18．When did Emery visit China for the second time? A．1984. B．2009. C．2019. D．2025. 19．What is the correct order of the following events? a. Emery held a photo exhibition in Shanghai. b. Emery started working on a ship. c. Emery’s photo book came out. d. Emery visited Beijing and Tianjin. A．d→b→a→c B．b→c→d→a C．b→d→c→a D．d→c→a→b 20．What is the main purpose of the passage? A．To share an exciting trip to China. B．To tell what opening-up is. C．To draw attention to the importance of some old photos. D．To show China’s change through the eyes of a foreign photographer. 【答案】16．A 17．B 18．C 19．C 20．D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述外国摄影师迈克·埃默里1980年初次来华拍摄市井生活，时隔39年重返中国，亲眼见证城市巨大变迁，随后出版摄影集、举办摄影展，借老照片展现中国数十年发展变化的故事。 【详解】16．原文第二段“In the early spring of 1980... recorded people’s daily lives. He took a large number of pictures of children.”，表明1980年他在中国拍摄了大量照片。 17．原文第三段“he saw so many tall apartment blocks that he could hardly believe his eyes.”，“hardly believe his eyes”意为“不敢相信眼前景象”，对应surprised（惊讶的）。 18．原文第二段交代初次来华是1980年，第三段“Emery returned to China 39 years later”，1980+39=2019。 19．原文第二段提到1980年初，埃默里得到船上摄影师的工作，对应事件b；抵达中国后他前往北京、天津等地拍照，对应事件d； 原文第三段交代时隔39年的2019年，他重返中国并同年推出摄影集，对应事件c；原文第四段说明次年他在上海开展摄影展，对应事件a。 事件先后顺序为b→d→c→a，因此选C。 20．全文以外国摄影师迈克·埃默里的亲身经历为线索，先写1980年拍摄中国原貌，再写多年后重返中国见证城乡巨变，最后展出当年照片展现时代发展，D选项“通过外国摄影师的视角展现中国变化”完整覆盖全文主旨D。 B Two Minds, Two Stories When we think of great inventors, two names often come to mind: Thomas Edison and Nikola Tesla. Both were brilliant, but their approaches to creativity were very different. Edison is known for his practical inventions, such as the light bulb and the phonograph. He believed in hard work and teamwork. He once said, “Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration (汗水).” Edison had a large team of assistants and tested thousands of materials before finding the right one for the light bulb filament. His method was trial and error — keep trying until something works. Tesla, on the other hand, was a dreamer. He imagined his inventions in complete detail before building them. He is known for his work on alternating current (AC) electricity, which powers most of our homes today. Tesla preferred to work alone and often spent hours visualizing his ideas in his mind. He believed that a clear mental picture was more important than physical testing. Despite their differences, both men changed the world. Edison’s approach shows us the value of persistence and teamwork. Tesla’s approach reminds us that imagination and vision are also powerful tools. Perhaps the best way to be creative is to combine both — use your imagination to dream, and use hard work to make those dreams come true. 21．According to the passage, how did Edison and Tesla differ? A．One was American and the other was European. B．One worked in the 19th century and the other in the 20th. C．One focused on practical testing and the other on mental imagining. D．One invented the light bulb and the other invented the radio. 22．What does Edison’s famous quote “Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration” suggest? A．Inspiration is more important than hard work. B．Hard work is more important than inspiration. C．Geniuses do not need to work hard. D．Perspiration is a waste of time. 23．How did Tesla often develop his inventions? A．By testing thousands of materials. B．By working with a large team. C．By visualizing them in his mind first. D．By copying Edison’s work. 24．The word “visualizing” in the third paragraph most probably means ________. A．drawing pictures B．building models C．forming mental images D．writing descriptions 25．What is the writer’s final suggestion about creativity? A．Only Edison’s method works. B．Only Tesla’s method works. C．We should combine imagination with hard work. D．We should choose one method and stick to it. 【答案】21．C 22．B 23．C 24．C 25．C 【导语】本文对比了爱迪生和特斯拉的不同创造方式，最后建议将两者的优点结合——既要用想象力构思梦想，也要用勤奋努力实现梦想。 【详解】21．本文明确说：“Edison is known for his practical inventions... Tesla, on the other hand, was a dreamer.”Edison以他的实用型发明而闻名……Tesla则相反，他是个梦想家。第2段详述Edison“trial and error”进行实际测试，第3段详述Tesla“visualizing his ideas in his mind”脑中想象。因此Edison和Tesla的不同之处在于一个注重实际测试，另一个注重脑中想象。 22．第2段提到“He believed in hard work and teamwork. He once said, ‘Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration (汗水).’ ”Edison相信努力和团队合作，因此他说“天才=1%灵感+99%汗水”，明显强调努力比灵感更重要。 23．第3段提到“Tesla preferred to work alone and often spent hours visualizing his ideas in his mind”Tesla经常是通过脑中想象进行发明的。 24．第3段的“in his mind”和“He believed that a clear mental picture was more important than physical testing.”可知，visualizing的意思是在脑中形成心理图像。 25．最后一段最后一句：“Perhaps the best way ... is to combine both—use your imagination to dream, and use hard work to make those dreams come true.”明确建议结合想象与努力。 C Do you know when restaurants were invented? The first restaurants were invented thousands of years ago. However, they were very different from restaurants today. The first restaurants were in ancient Greece (希腊) and ancient Rome. These restaurants served food in large stone bowls. Everyone shared the food from big bowls. People believe that these places were very popular because most homes in ancient Greece and Rome did not have kitchens. Also, people didn’t have to store food at home if they ate their meals at these restaurants. Later, restaurants began to open in China. In the early 1100s, more than one million people lived in the city of Hangzhou, China. It was a very busy city, and people had money. Smart cooks started cooking and selling food along the big streets in the city. Unlike in ancient Greece and Rome, people in China could choose food from a menu. They didn’t have to eat everyone else’s food. For the next several centuries, there were restaurants all over the world. People could buy food in the street or at inns (小旅馆). Then in the middle of the 1700s, restaurants started opening in Paris. These restaurants were more similar to the restaurants we know today. There was a wider choice of food, and eating in these restaurants was a more enjoyable experience. In the 19th century, trains made travel much faster and simpler. In the end, this kind of restaurant began to appear all over Europe and in other parts of the world. Now, restaurants are everywhere. You can buy different kinds of food. You can get food sent to your door. But remember it wasn’t always like that. 根据上面短文内容，选择最佳答案。 26．It is believed that these first restaurants were popular because ________. A．people could eat different food B．the food there was very cheap C．people were too busy to cook D．most homes didn’t have kitchens 27．How did the first restaurants serve the food? A．In old pots. B．In large stone bowls. C．In small baskets. D．In big plates. 28．How were the restaurants in Hangzhou different from the first restaurants? A．They offered menus to customers. B．They usually served the same food. C．They sold the food in large stone bowls. D．They prepared food for all the people in the city. 29．What does the underlined part “these restaurants” in Paragraph 4 refer to (指代)? A．Restaurants in ancient Greece and ancient Rome. B．Restaurants in Hangzhou in the early 1100s. C．Restaurants in Paris in the middle of the 1700s. D．Restaurants all over Europe in the 19th century. 30．What does this passage mainly talk about? A．The food of the restaurants. B．The service of the restaurants. C．The development of the restaurants. D．The environment of the restaurants. 【答案】26．D 27．B 28．A 29．C 30．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了餐馆从古代到现代的发展演变过程，介绍了不同时期、不同地区餐馆的特点及其变化。 【详解】26．第二段提到：“People believe that these places were very popular because most homes in ancient Greece and Rome did not have kitchens.”，最早的餐馆受欢迎的原因是大多数家庭没有厨房。 27．第二段提到：“These restaurants served food in large stone bowls.”，最早的餐馆是用大石碗盛放食物的。 28．第三段提到：“Unlike in ancient Greece and Rome, people in China could choose food from a menu.”，杭州的餐馆与最早的餐馆不同之处在于提供菜单给顾客选择。 29．第四段提到：“Then in the middle of the 1700s, restaurants started opening in Paris. These restaurants were more similar to the restaurants we know today.”，“these restaurants”指代前一句提到的“restaurants started opening in Paris”，即18世纪中期在巴黎开设的餐馆。 30．全文按时间顺序介绍了餐馆从古希腊、古罗马，到中国杭州，再到巴黎，最后遍布世界的过程，因此主要讲述的是餐馆的发展历程。 第二节(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读短文，从方框中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一项多余 Technology has changed our lives in many ways. 31 We can talk to people on the other side of the world instantly and share information in seconds.

First, set limits on screen time. Second, make time for offline activities like meeting friends or playing sports. 34 35 Electric cars and digital books are good examples of how technology can help protect the environment. We should celebrate these advances while also being aware of the challenges technology brings. A．Technology can connect us, but it can also isolate us. B．It has also made it easier to find information and learn new things. C．This can lead to health problems and reduce our quality of life. D．However, we must be careful not to rely too much on technology. E．On the other hand, technology has many benefits for the environment. F．It is important to take breaks from screens and spend time with people in person. 【答案】31．B 32．A 33．C 34．F 35．E 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了科技对生活的影响，包括带来的便利、可能造成的社交隔离问题、如何保持平衡以及对环境的益处。 【详解】31．空1前一句讲科技改变生活，后一句举例科技让人们即时沟通、分享信息，还提到智能手机和电脑成为工作学习的必备工具，B选项“It has also made it easier to find information and learn new things.”承接上文科技的作用，补充说明科技对学习、信息获取的助力，符合此处语境。 32．空2是段落主题句，后文讲述过度上网会让人忽略现实中的人际联结，体现科技的负面影响；A选项“Technology can connect us, but it can also isolate us.”既承接前文科技的连接作用，又引出后文的弊端，契合段落主旨。 33．空3前一句讲过度上网会让人忽略现实中的亲友，C选项“This can lead to health problems and reduce our quality of life.”承接前文“过度上网忽略现实人际”的内容，进一步说明过度依赖科技的危害，逻辑连贯。 34．空4前一句讲平衡线上线下的方法：限制屏幕时间、安排线下活动，F选项“It is important to take breaks from screens and spend time with people in person.”呼应前文的线下活动建议，是对平衡线上线下方式的补充说明，符合语境。 35．空5后一句举电动汽车、电子书的例子，说明科技对环保的益处，E选项“On the other hand, technology has many benefits for the environment.”引出下文的环保相关内容，契合段意。 三、短文填空(共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分) 阅读短文，从方框中选择适当的词并用其正确形式填空，使短文通顺、意思完整。每空限填一词，每词限用一次。 with, international, but, carry, remain, sing, age, improve, big, they The world is changing fast. Twenty-five years ago, most young people in the UK wanted to take up 36 , work in law, or be doctors. But nowadays, things are greatly different. Recently, an organization has 37 out a survey among 1,002 people. The survey found that the “dream job” for many young people aged between 16 and 25 in the UK is a video blogger (视频博主), or “vlogger”. Over 40% of 38 put “vlogger” as their top choice. The rapid 39 in digital tools has brought about this change. The Internet and social media have made it much easier and more convenient to reach 40 communities. “In the past, Hollywood created some of the 41 stars of all time; now, anyone with a computer and a camera may become a star,” said Phil Samuels, an expert on social media from the UK. “From fashion to art, these self-made stars communicate with their fans of all 42 online.” People see the bright side of being a vlogger, 43 they forget the challenges of achieving success. Many may be short of support or money at the beginning. This has led to a discussion: Should young people keep up 44 this trend (趋势)? Or do traditional jobs still 45 a good choice for them? 【答案】 36．singing 37．carried 38．them 39．improvement 40．international 41．biggest 42．ages 43．but 44．with 45．remain 【导语】本文介绍如今英国年轻人最向往视频博主职业，分析该现象成因并探讨网红潮流与传统职业该如何选择。 【详解】36．句意：25年前，英国大多数年轻人想从事歌唱、法律行业或是成为医生。此处需要一个动名词，在句中表示“歌唱职业”；固定搭配take up后接动名词表从事某类事业，所以填singing。 37．句意：近期一家机构针对1002人开展了一项调查。此处需要一个动词过去分词，在句中表示“开展”；carry out a survey是固定搭配，表示“做调查”，has提示时态为现在完成时，动词需用过去分词，所以填carried。 38．句意：超过40%的受访者将“视频博主”列为自己的首选职业。此处需要一个人称代词宾格，在句中指代“受访年轻人”；介词of后要用人称代词宾格，they的宾格是them，所以填them。 39．句意：数字工具的飞速发展带来了这一职业观念的改变。此处需要一个名词，在句中表示“发展进步”；形容词rapid后修饰名词，improve对应的名词形式为improvement，谓语动词has为单数，所以填improvement。 40．句意：互联网和社交媒体使接触国际社区变得更加容易。此处需要一个形容词，在句中表示“国际的”；因为该词用来修饰名词communities，international是形容词可作定语，所以填international。 41．句意：过去好莱坞打造出一批史上最大牌的明星。此处需要一个形容词最高级，在句中表示“大牌的、知名的”；some of the后接形容词最高级修饰复数名词，所以填big的最高级biggest。 42．句意：这些白手起家的明星与所有年龄段的粉丝在线交流。此处需要一个名词复数，在句中表示“年龄”；固定搭配all ages意为“各年龄段”，all后名词需用复数，所以填ages。 43．句意：人们只看到做视频博主光鲜的一面，但是他们忽略了取得成功背后的重重挑战。此处需要一个连词，在句中表转折语义“但是”；前后两句存在相反对比的逻辑，所以填but。 44．句意：这引发了一场讨论：年轻人应该跟上这一趋势吗？ 此处需要一个介词，在句中表示“跟随”；固定短语keep up with意为“跟上、紧跟”，所以填with。 45．句意：还是传统职业对他们来说依旧是不错的选择？此处需要一个动词原形，在句中表示“仍然是”；本句为一般疑问句，助动词do后接动词原形，remain意为“保持，仍然是”，所以填remain。 四、读写结合(共两节，满分 25 分) 第一节任务型阅读(共 5 小题，每小题 2 分，满分 10 分) 阅读短文，用英文填空或回答问题（请注意每小题的词数要求）。 The school art festival is an exciting event that takes place every year at Sunshine Middle School.

They took photos of the social changes after the country’s opening-up. Mike Emery, now 69, is one of them. In the early spring of 1980, Emery got a job as a photographer on a ship to China. His main job was to take photos for the guests on the ship. When he stepped onto the land of China for the very first time, he was so excited. Emery followed the guests to big cities like Shanghai, Beijing and Tianjin. In his spare time, he walked with a camera through the streets alone and recorded people’s daily lives in those cities. He took a large number of pictures of children. In his photos, they played on the streets, went to school, and smiled at him happily.    Emery returned to China 39 years later. When he stepped off the plane and saw the country again, he saw so many tall apartment blocks that he could hardly believe his eyes. Besides, the once narrow streets have become wide roads and bridges. This change has made public transportation more convenient. In the same year, he published a photo book—China 1980. He hopes these photos can help people understand Chinese society in 1980 and show them China’s great changes. Last year, from July 24th to August 19th, Emery had a photo exhibition (展览), Nice to Meet You, in Shanghai. These photos bring back pleasant old memories. “Through these photos, people today can walk into the past and touch the special stories of China,” he said. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 16．What did Emery do in 1980?

B Two Minds, Two Stories When we think of great inventors, two names often come to mind: Thomas Edison and Nikola Tesla. Both were brilliant, but their approaches to creativity were very different. Edison is known for his practical inventions, such as the light bulb and the phonograph. He believed in hard work and teamwork. He once said, “Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration (汗水).” Edison had a large team of assistants and tested thousands of materials before finding the right one for the light bulb filament. His method was trial and error — keep trying until something works. Tesla, on the other hand, was a dreamer. He imagined his inventions in complete detail before building them. He is known for his work on alternating current (AC) electricity, which powers most of our homes today. Tesla preferred to work alone and often spent hours visualizing his ideas in his mind. He believed that a clear mental picture was more important than physical testing. Despite their differences, both men changed the world. Edison’s approach shows us the value of persistence and teamwork. Tesla’s approach reminds us that imagination and vision are also powerful tools. Perhaps the best way to be creative is to combine both — use your imagination to dream, and use hard work to make those dreams come true. 21．According to the passage, how did Edison and Tesla differ? A．One was American and the other was European. B．One worked in the 19th century and the other in the 20th. C．One focused on practical testing and the other on mental imagining. D．One invented the light bulb and the other invented the radio. 22．What does Edison’s famous quote “Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration” suggest? A．Inspiration is more important than hard work. B．Hard work is more important than inspiration. C．Geniuses do not need to work hard. D．Perspiration is a waste of time. 23．How did Tesla often develop his inventions? A．By testing thousands of materials. B．By working with a large team. C．By visualizing them in his mind first. D．By copying Edison’s work. 24．The word “visualizing” in the third paragraph most probably means ________. A．drawing pictures B．building models C．forming mental images D．writing descriptions 25．What is the writer’s final suggestion about creativity? A．Only Edison’s method works. B．Only Tesla’s method works. C．We should combine imagination with hard work. D．We should choose one method and stick to it. C Do you know when restaurants were invented? The first restaurants were invented thousands of years ago. However, they were very different from restaurants today. The first restaurants were in ancient Greece (希腊) and ancient Rome. These restaurants served food in large stone bowls. Everyone shared the food from big bowls. People believe that these places were very popular because most homes in ancient Greece and Rome did not have kitchens. Also, people didn’t have to store food at home if they ate their meals at these restaurants. Later, restaurants began to open in China. In the early 1100s, more than one million people lived in the city of Hangzhou, China. It was a very busy city, and people had money. Smart cooks started cooking and selling food along the big streets in the city. Unlike in ancient Greece and Rome, people in China could choose food from a menu. They didn’t have to eat everyone else’s food. For the next several centuries, there were restaurants all over the world. People could buy food in the street or at inns (小旅馆). Then in the middle of the 1700s, restaurants started opening in Paris. These restaurants were more similar to the restaurants we know today. There was a wider choice of food, and eating in these restaurants was a more enjoyable experience. In the 19th century, trains made travel much faster and simpler. In the end, this kind of restaurant began to appear all over Europe and in other parts of the world. Now, restaurants are everywhere. You can buy different kinds of food. You can get food sent to your door. But remember it wasn’t always like that. 根据上面短文内容，选择最佳答案。 26．It is believed that these first restaurants were popular because ________. A．people could eat different food B．the food there was very cheap C．people were too busy to cook D．most homes didn’t have kitchens 27．How did the first restaurants serve the food? A．In old pots. B．In large stone bowls. C．In small baskets. D．In big plates. 28．How were the restaurants in Hangzhou different from the first restaurants? A．They offered menus to customers. B．They usually served the same food. C．They sold the food in large stone bowls. D．They prepared food for all the people in the city. 29．What does the underlined part “these restaurants” in Paragraph 4 refer to (指代)? A．Restaurants in ancient Greece and ancient Rome. B．Restaurants in Hangzhou in the early 1100s. C．Restaurants in Paris in the middle of the 1700s. D．Restaurants all over Europe in the 19th century. 30．What does this passage mainly talk about?

Twenty-five years ago, most young people in the UK wanted to take up 36 , work in law, or be doctors. But nowadays, things are greatly different. Recently, an organization has 37 out a survey among 1,002 people. The survey found that the “dream job” for many young people aged between 16 and 25 in the UK is a video blogger (视频博主), or “vlogger”. Over 40% of 38 put “vlogger” as their top choice. The rapid 39 in digital tools has brought about this change. The Internet and social media have made it much easier and more convenient to reach 40 communities. “In the past, Hollywood created some of the 41 stars of all time; now, anyone with a computer and a camera may become a star,” said Phil Samuels, an expert on social media from the UK. “From fashion to art, these self-made stars communicate with their fans of all 42 online.” People see the bright side of being a vlogger, 43 they forget the challenges of achieving success.
